Review: Win Min Transient Inn in Cagayan de Oro City

Win Min Transient Inn is a budget accommodation in Cagayan de Oro City. It is conveniently located inside the Market City, more popularly known as Agora. It is right within the Agora Bus Terminal complex and only a few steps away from fastfood outlets (Jollibee and Mang Inasal), Rose Pharmacy and, of course, SM Market City. It is only one jeepney ride to and from the Lim Ket Kai Mall and Gaisano City Mall.

We stayed at Win Min Transient Inn the night before our flight to Manila last month. Coming from Bukidnon, we arrived at the Agora Bus Terminal at around 10 PM so instead of looking for a place to stay in the city proper, we just walked over to the other side of the arrival area and checked in at Win Min.

Rate for their Standard Room is only 60 pesos per hour. It is really cheap, though they require you to pay for a minimum number of hours (I think its 4 or 5 hours). I paid 420 pesos good for 8 hours and we were given the key to our room located in the second floor.

Surprisingly, for a budget inn, the airconditioned room we stayed is spacious and clean. It has one double bed, a flat screen cable TV and a bath/comfort room with hot and cold shower. Compared to D' Morvie Suites (a more popular budget accommodation in Cagayan de Oro), the room in Win Min is bigger and has more space to comfortably to move around.

One thing that may turn off guests of Win Min is the noise from incoming and outgoing buses and also from nearby videoke bars which could get through the concrete walls. I didn't mind the disturbance though, as I was able to sleep comfortably throughout the night.

During our stay, Win Min Transient Inn has an on going promo in which they offer 50% off the room rates for guests staying for 24 hours. So instead of paying P1,440.00 for their Standard Room, you only have to pay P720.00 for a 24-hour stay.

I have stayed in this Hotel several times 4 times 2012 and 3 times 2013.It's a great hotel and very near anything you may need, Malls, laces to eat and drink....It's always clean and comfortable,,, I have stayed in rooms twice the cost and was not as comfortable as here at WIN MIN....I am always treated very good and any problems are fixed NOW not when they get to it !I highly commend this hotel to anyone seeking GREAT ROOM and GREAT COST and LOCATION....
